Unfortunately, I cannot for the life of me = get git-svn to work. It refuses to recognise "git svn" as a valid comma= nd, and "svn" does not appear in the list of commands when I type, "svn= --help" in Git Bash (I am using Git in Windows, if that makes any diff= erence).

Also, you'd want to type "git help svn", not "svn --help" to see the manual.
